That is a problem. You don't want the label. You want the slt it came from. See http://www.bacula.org/en/dev-manual/Autochanger_Resource.html#SECTION0017130000000000000000 loaded -- returns number of the slot that is loaded, base 1, in the drive or 0 if the drive is empty. Current problem: I can't see how to get this information from the device. I'll keep working on it: $ sudo /usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg4 inquiry Password: Product Type: Medium Changer Vendor ID: 'QUANTUM ' Product ID: 'PX500 ' Revision: '0033' Attached Changer: No [dlangi...@backup01 bacula]$ -- Dan Langille -- http://langille.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
